Kellri35 - from another coach - and I am not trying to be smart but In a side on tackle the head never, ever, goes in front - unless you want your players to have broken jaws or necks. All ways head on bum - lock and drive.
I think this is stupid......try and experience tackling on the hard ground it's completely different to what u try and teach the ladies on the soft bed.
Well done Coach. a good practice for introducing the tackle or reminding senior players. I'd like to say the girl in the red shirt put in a great set of tackles, I hope she tackles that well in a match, she certainly looks the part here. 1 small disagreement tho; the objective of the tackle is to stop the attack and regain posession - nothing to do with getting the ball carrier to ground (Thats just the best way to achieve the 1st part of the objective).
